Subject: [34/68] ext4: Fix remaining racy updates of EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@...nvz.org>

commit 84a8dce2710cc425089a2b92acc354d4fbb5788d upstream.

A few functions were still modifying i_flags in a racy manner.
